Study Abroad

Apply

The application process only requires two main steps—completing the Intent to Study Abroad Form and your Program-Specific Application—but it's your responsibility to pay attention to all Haverford and program-specific deadlines.

A few programs have special requirements for applications (ie. Oxford/Cambridge) or are direct admit (IES, DIS) by Dean Mancini. All students must be in good academic and disciplinary standing to study abroad.

Intent to Study Abroad

All forms must be submitted by October 5 for Spring semester or February 5 for Fall semester and yearlong programs. This is the only way to request permission from Haverford to study abroad and to be entered in the Study Abroad database. It is recommended that you apply early, because many programs have limited enrollment and fill up quickly!

Special Program Requirements

IES Programs

Students who meet the eligibility requirements for IES approved programs may be directly admitted by Dean Mancini. Students must apply via the IES website but should do so only after they have been interviewed by Dean Mancini.

Students with GPAs below 3.0, those applying after the deadlines, or who are on academic warning cannot be directly admitted to IES programs. Contact Dean Mancini for further information if you fall into these categories.

DIS Program

All students applying to the DIS program must first schedule an interview with Dean Mancini to determine if they meet the requirements of the program. If students meet the eligibility requirements, Dean Mancini can directly admit the students from the DIS website.
